Bedlam - Opening Titles
0:02 - The beginning of the opening titles starts with two actors in the film with bold white font that makes it stand out. These people probably play a main role as they appear first. The man is sat on a seat in a dark room with low key lighting. This makes him seem very lonely and creates a creepy, foreboding and eerie atmosphere.
0:06 - This is the second shot featured in the opening credits. two actors names are also seen in the shot. The shot is off a person in a abandoned room which I dirty and has broken furniture in it. This shot looks like its set in a mental home because it contains medical furniture and also she is wearing white.
0:12 - On the 12th seconds of the opening credits this shot is seen. It is off an investigator of a murder. This ties into the genre of the TV show as there has to be a protagonist looking into the psychotic mind of the killer and has to go around finding why he is doing it.
0:19 - This is a birds eye view shot featured in the sequence. It contains the credits for the producer. Also it contains two naked people that have most likely indulged in sexual intercourse. This may show other genres linked into the horror side or may hint to the obsession side of the villain character.
0:25 - This is a shot of a creepy doll up close in a close-up frame. It is used in the opening credits to show the genre of the film as it is a horror. This is an effective prop as it links to children and horror which is quite a creepy aspect for viewers especially if they are parents.
0:28 - This is the last screen shot from the opening titles. It is a screen shot of the programmes title. The title reads Bedlam and is a washy dirty colour. It uses quite dark and dirty colours which could convey the darkness of the program. The title also moves around the scream which could relate to the horror genre its linked to.
